"This feeling is really not bad!"
Compared to Tang Yuanmu's loss of composure, Yun Xiao's mood at this mont was undoubtedly extrely pleasant, because not only had he left the forr in a sorry state, but his own ridian Qi hadn't been consud at all.
This was entirely due to the power of the Four Symbols Locking Thunder Array. With Yun Xiao's understanding of array formations, achieving this step was nothing extraordinary.
In fact, for Yun Xiao to set up such a large array himself would indeed be impossible with his current strength, but just using what was set up by predecessors was a piece of cake.
This perfectly echoed Yun Xiao's earlier words about dealing with Tang Yuanmu being troubleso outside, but extrely simple here. Unfortunately, until this mont, Tang Yuanmu still hadn't realized his predicant.
Enraged, Tang Yuanmu, with his hair exploding, was recklessly unleashing his vast ridian Qi. Seeing this scene, Yun Xiao couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
"In this Four Symbols Locking Thunder Array, you have no chance!"
A deep voice emitted from Yun Xiao's mouth as he withdrew his right hand, snapping his fingers lightly. Simultaneously, countless thunderbolts surged out from the four giant trees, their numbers several tis more than before.
Perhaps only Yun Xiao himself could perceive the patterns among those thunderbolts. Regardless of whether they were the surrounding cultivators or Tang Yuanmu within the array, seeing the countless thunderbolts, they all felt a tingling in their scalps.
Tang Yuanmu, though possessing that Blood Rain Curtain-like defense, was made to look quite miserable by the previous dozens of thunderbolts. How could he possibly contend with these thunderbolts, now increased several tis over?
In the midst of the large array, Tang Yuanmu found it practically impossible to evade these thunderbolts. Despite his previous venomous words, his heart was already planning to first escape from this place.
It seems that after being passively beaten for so long, without any ans to retaliate, Tang Yuanmu finally realized that he had been outsmarted by that young man, inadvertently entering this fantastic and formidable array.
Tang Yuanmu believed that as long as he got out of this array, in a one-on-one battle outside, he could definitely kill that re Qi Seeking Realm Late Stage brat in a single move.
Swoosh!
With his thoughts swirling, while fending off the countless thunderbolts bombarding his body, Tang Yuanmu slightly moved his body, intending to slip through a gap between two thunderbolts and directly exit the range of the five giant trees.
At this mont, Tang Yuanmu no longer thought of obtaining the Thunder Wood from the other four trees; having already grabbed the most precious Half-step Heavenly Rank Thunder Wood, he could think of ways to get the others later.
However, since Yun Xiao had already made his move, how could he possibly let Tang Yuanmu easily take the Half-step Heavenly Rank Thunder Wood away? That originally belonged to him!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Under Yun Xiao's deliberate control, one of the thunderbolts suddenly changed direction, swiftly wrapping around Tang Yuanmu's right hand holding the Thunder Wood, causing his entire right side to freeze abruptly.
In fact, to the spectators outside, those three thunderbolts were wrapping around Tang Yuanmu's right hand. But if soone took a closer look, they'd notice that the targets of those three thunderbolts were not Tang Yuanmu's right hand, but rely that segnt of pitch-black Thunder Wood.
Once the three thunderbolts wrapped around the Thunder Wood, they exerted an extrely strong pulling force. Or rather, the primary duty of this Four Symbols Locking Thunder Array was to protect the Thunder Wood, and now it was finally unleashing its inherent power.
"Hmph, what I, Tang Yuanmu, have acquired will never be returned!"
Sensing the exceedingly formidable pulling force, Tang Yuanmu's slightly charred face turned cold, a grunt escaping his lips. Imdiately, his body's power seed to grow even more rampant at this mont.
As a Qi Seeking Realm Early Stage powerhouse who had killed many, Tang Yuanmu certainly possessed so of his own special ans. He believed that before he unleashed those ans, the Thunder Wood in his hand could never be pulled away by those three thunderbolts.
Swish!
However, at this mont, a black light, distinct from those silver thunderbolts, suddenly flashed in Tang Yuanmu's eyes. This black light felt sowhat familiar to him.
"Let go!"
Soon after, Tang Yuanmu heard a familiar voice. At this mont, he had no more doubts, instantly realizing what that black light truly was, his face turning extrely unpleasant.
Clearly, Yun Xiao had seized the opportunity, wielding his Dragon Taming Sword, swinging down with a slash aid at Tang Yuanmu's right arm, imdiately putting this notorious Blood Slaughter Butcher into a dilemma.
At this mont, Tang Yuanmu's right hand was clutching the Thunder Wood, fiercely contending with the pulling force of those three thunderbolts. According to his initial intention, it was absolutely impossible for him to let go.
But due to Yun Xiao's rapidly descending Dragon Taming Sword, Tang Yuanmu knew all too well that if he didn't let go, not only would he fail to hold onto the Thunder Wood, but he might also lose his entire right arm.
In reality, this choice wasn't difficult at all. It was just that Tang Yuanmu was extrely reluctant to let go of the Half-step Heavenly Rank Thunder Wood he had just acquired. However, in just a mont of hesitation, the Black Light Wooden Sword was already no more than a foot away from his right arm.
"Forget it, as long as the green hills remain, there's no fear of running out of firewood!"
It must be said that this guy, who has long lived by licking blood off the knife's edge, really knows when to pick up and when to let go. As he thought to himself, what's the point of the future if he loses his right arm?
What's more, Tang Yuanmu was well aware that he found himself in such a disadvantageous position only because he was trapped in this inexplicable Thunder Array. Outside of it, how could that kid nad Star possibly be his match?
Swish!
At this critical mont, Tang Yuanmu finally withdrew, and the watchers only saw a flash of dark light. But in the end, Tang Yuanmu's right arm was still intact, leaving them a bit disappointed.
It's not so much that these people liked Yun Xiao, but they despised Tang Yuanmu's tyranny even more. If the old man suffered a heavy injury, wouldn't it make everyone happy?
So at this mont, everyone secretly prayed in their hearts, hoping that Star could use the might of the Thunder Array to keep Tang Yuanmu here permanently, which would remove a major threat around Thunder Mountain.
In the array, Yun Xiao missed with his sword, but he already controlled the Power of thunder and lightning, seizing the Half-step Heavenly Rank Thunder Wood in his hand. Truth be told, this was his first real contact with such a powerful piece of Thunder Wood.
Sensing the imnsely powerful Thunder Attribute within the Thunder Wood, Yun Xiao felt quite satisfied. However, now was not the ti to study it, so after placing the Thunder Wood into his Waist Storage, he turned his gaze to Tang Yuanmu's direction.
Just as Yun Xiao took back the Thunder Wood, the raging Thunder Power didn't stop, continuing to bombard Tang Yuanmu in a chaotic frenzy.
"Huh? This old guy..."
But upon looking, Yun Xiao noticed a flash in his eyes, for under the rampant thunder light, Tang Yuanmu's entire body seed to transform into a blood-colored glow.
Whoosh!
In the next instant, Tang Yuanmu turned into a blood-colored glow and quickly escaped the raging thunders, directly exiting the range of the Locking Thunder Array.
"Star, you little bastard, stay in that array if you dare, otherwise, I, Tang Yuanmu, will make you wish you were dead!"
Appearing outside the large array, Tang Yuanmu's face seed pale with an abnormal flush, and hearing the harsh words he spat, everyone seed thoughtful.
However, even as Tang Yuanmu uttered these ruthless words, he did not wait for Yun Xiao outside the courtyard but disappeared into the distance in a few flashes, moving at a speed that left people speechless.
In fact, Tang Yuanmu paid an imnse price to escape from the thunder's onslaught. At this mont, even against a Half-step Origin Seeking Realm cultivator, he might not be able to win. He needed ti to recover.
Those harsh words were indeed just bravado. He was really afraid that the young man nad Star would chase him out. In his current exhausted state, who would win was still uncertain.
Tang Yuanmu's departure signaled the end of the upheaval here, and looking at the black-clad youth surrounded by big trees, everyone's hearts were sowhat conflicted.
Swish, swish, swish, swish!
In the next mont, they saw the youth in black move swiftly, extracting the Thunder Wood from the cores of four big trees with four continuous strikes, then putting them into his Waist Storage.
Seeing this scene, many people felt a pang of disappointnt, for they had just hoped that Star, having driven away Tang Yuanmu, might honor the earlier promise to let them vie for the Thunder Wood from the four big trees. Now, it seed they had thought too much.
"Anyway, with the four pieces of Thunder Wood, you wouldn't have enough to share, so just assu that the old fellow took them all!"
After finishing all this, Yun Xiao finally turned around and spoke, causing everyone's expressions to change a little, thinking that this statent was actually irrefutable.
In truth, most of the people present thought it quite reasonable for Yun Xiao to take all the Thunder Wood. If they had such strength, they probably wouldn't have acted differently from him.
After all, if Tang Yuanmu had won, they wouldn't have gotten any Thunder Wood, and perhaps their lives would have been in danger. Strictly speaking, Star earned his keep by his strength. Why should he share it with outsiders who didn't contribute to the battle?
Besides, given Yun Xiao's current prowess in defeating Tang Yuanmu, even if they had the guts, they wouldn't dare confront that black-clad youth, especially seeing Star still stand in the Thunder Array.
Even Tang Yuanmu, an expert at the Origin Seeking Realm Early Stage, was driven away by the youth with the Thunder Array. If they went up, they would probably be turned into charred corpses in an instant!
